    replacing binging with healthy habits

    Habits can be important, but I don't think binge-eating is about habit. I think it's a way of giving yourself something because you're feeling denied in some way. You're busy taking care of your family all day, but you should be sure to get in some "me" time during the day, preferably after the...

    MBT shoes?

    Thanks! What styles do you have? My feet are so weird that only one particular style of leather Mary Janes fit. But they fit very well. My feet are almost a full size difference in length. (No wonder I'm unbalanced. ;)).

    MBT shoes?

    Has anyone here ever owned MBT shoes, and if so, do you think they are worth the price? My vacation is going to involve lots of walking, and I want to be sure I can keep up. TIA!

    Double Shot Saturday

    With the stifling heat, I couldn't get inspired to do any cardio, but I did Push Pull with the AC turned up high. I LOVE that workout!

    23 Years of Sobriety: Reflections

    Hey A-J! I'm so glad I stopped in or I might have missed your annual post. Congratulations on 23 years!! You are the greatest, my dear. And I hope it is not too presumptuous of me to say that you cannot have a "great life's failure" while you still have more life to go, and I am sure that...

    TV shows that I ALWAYS watch

    I shouldn't be posting in this thread because there is no TV show that I ALWAYS watch, except that if I know Project Runway is on, I will watch it, but I lose track of when it's on. These days I find reading more interesting than watching TV, but when my eyes hurt too much to read at night...

    Please indulge this Kindle fanatic

    If I have 10 "likes" next to the picture of my Decalgirl skin by tomorrow, I get a free skin. Would you mind? Just click on the link and hit "like" next to the pic of my Kindle with the poolside skin. Apparently, I'm obsessed with Kindle accessories. :rolleyes: Can't help myself. I may...

    Do you have a maid?

    Good for you GGirl! Regarding your concern that the housekeeper might take something: what's to take? Even a dishonest housekeeper (I had one once) will take only small, fungible items. Don't leave any cash or precious jewels lying around. When I have any borderline "recreational"...

    Do you have a maid?

    My housekeeper is through a service, but I've had the same woman for years. What's great about having a service is that I'm not responsible for taxes, I don't have to think about raises, etc. Theoretically, if she couldn't make it, the service would send someone else. But in all these years...

    Father's Day Wknd Plans???

    Liann, I hope Akadia gets here SOON! We'll be celebrating Daddy Day at the annual Bar-B-Que at my stepson's house. They generally have around 50 people or so, so it's quite a bash! This is only my stepson's second year as an actual Daddy himself, which makes it extra exciting. :) Wishing...

    "Don't lose too much weight"

    jnka, I have said things like that to people, and really did think I was complimenting them while being caring at the same time. As a former anorexic, I'm always afraid of encouraging anorexia in others the way it was encouraged in me. No matter how much weight I lost, my mother always thought...

    Definitely not in love with Jari Love

    Rule Number One of doing a Jari Love workout: When she speaks, do not listen to the words! ;)

    So what do you think. . . .

    I love it! You look beautiful!

    So, what about Jari Love's workouts?

    I just have to clarify this: It's not so much that Jari's WOs help me to control my appetite, as that they allow me to achieve muscle development without increasing my appetite. But that's very important to me!

    So, what about Jari Love's workouts?

    When I said "don't listen to the words", I was just referring to the "carb" and "calorie" junk Jari talks about, that Fit44 mentioned. I think if Jari really wants to believe it's possible to use 1000 calories in a one-hour workout, she's totally kidding herself. Just ignore that hogwash, and...

    So, what about Jari Love's workouts?

    Re: appetite control: I'm a lot less hungry when my weight training consists of endurance workouts as opposed to heavy lifting workouts. At first I thought it was just me, but then I have heard others say similar things. I loved Cathe's Slow & Heavy workouts, and used to do them all the time...

    So, what about Jari Love's workouts?

    I'm one who really likes Jari's workouts. They are mostly endurance workouts, more so than Cathe's in general. As much as I love heavier lifting, for me, where weight training is concerned, Jari's workouts are better at helping me control my appetite. Generally, I do mostly Cathe and Jari for...

    Going to Napa! Suggestions?

    OMG, Janie, I forgot about the hot air balloon rides! We LOVED that! The wine train was okay, but the hot air balloon ride was truly awesome.
